plot_ownership_MFL
Focuses on facilities run by government, faith-based organisations, NGO’s and local authorities. Covers 50 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Sources of information include health sector reports, websites run by national or international organisations and personal communications
If MFL was available it was used. More than one datasource was often used to compile facility list
Private facilities are excluded, duplicates removed, name errors corrected and name variations were matched. Missing info was added with the use of other datasources.
Now hosted by the WHO Global Malaria Programme, last update February 2019
Malawi datasources includes MFL, https://data.humdata.org/dataset/malawi-health and http://www.cham.org.mw/uploads/7/3/0/8/73088105/cham_health_facilities_-_1_june_2016.pdf
At time of publishing, 639 facilities with 9 missing coordinates, not been updated since
Data includes facility name, type, ownership, source of location and reclassified facility types

Both data sources contain no information on services available, capacity or equipment. MFL does state whether facility is functional.
Classification of MFL facilities aligns more with the structure of the health care system in Malawi (community, primary, secondary, tertiary), it differentiates central hospitals from district and other hospitals. WHO has additional rural and mission hospitals, where do they fit in?
https://www.health.gov.mw/index.php/2016-01-06-19-58-23/national-aids states that at community level, health posts, dispensaries and maternity clinics offer services. Primary includes health centers and community hospitals, secondary consists of district and some CHAM hospitals, tertiary includes central hospitals.
